Psychological and physical side effects during G-CSF mobilization in related donors of allo-HCT. Ann Hematol 2024; 103:3199-3206. [PMID: 38637333 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-024-05753-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
The psychological side effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor mobilization in related donors of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) and impacts of psychological/physical side effects on harvest outcomes remain largely unknown. We prospectively analyzed 349 consecutive related peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donors for allo-HCT at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine from March 2021 to August 2023. Higher baseline peripheral blood white blood cell counts (p = 0.046), monocyte counts (p < 0.001), platelet counts (p = 0.001), and hemoglobin (p < 0.001) had a positive correlation to CD34+ cell counts in the first leukapheresis, while female donors (male vs. female, p < 0.001) and older age (> 40 vs. < = 40, p = 0.003) were negatively related to CD34+ cell counts. Bone pain was the most observed physical side effect and was more frequent in female donors (p = 0.032). The incidence of fatigue was higher in female donors and older donors (female vs. male, p = 0.016; > 40 vs. < = 40, p = 0.015). Donor depression (pre vs. during mobilization, p < 0.001), anxiety (pre vs. during mobilization, p = 0.043) and insomnia (pre vs. during mobilization, p = 0.011) scores increased during the mobilization period. Donors with higher depression, anxiety and stress scores at admission were more likely to experience nausea. At 1 month after the last leukapheresis, the counts of white blood cell, neutrophil, monocyte and hemoglobin were significant lower than baseline counts, while the platelet counts recovered to baseline. The mobilization and harvest process can increase the depression, anxiety and insomnia scores. Poor psychological status of the donor can aggravate the occurrence of physical side effects.

Abstract
Supportive care needs for hematopoietic stem cell recipients have been studied. Less is known about the care needs of stem cell donors. Care challenges arise at donor selection, preparation for the donation, the donation procedure and the immediate and long-term after-care. Care needs were analyzed for 1,831 consecutive bone marrow and peripheral stem cell donors at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital between January 2018 and August 2023 in support of a review of the current literature. During the selection, related donors may experience psychological pressures affecting their motivation, while donation centers may be willing to accept co-morbidities in these donors which might preclude donation in unrelated peers. For bone marrow donations, it is important to select donors not only according to optimal genetic matching criteria but also according to suitable donor/recipient weight ratios, to facilitate sufficient stem cell yields. During the donation preparation phase, side effects and complications related to stem cell stimulation must be anticipated and managed for peripheral cell donors, while the pros and cons of autologous blood donation should be evaluated carefully for bone marrow donors. The stem cell donation procedure itself carries potential side effects and complications as well. Peripheral cell donors may require a central line and may encounter hypocalcemia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. Bone marrow donors face risks associated with anesthesia, blood loss and pain. Post-procedure care focusses on pain management, blood cell recovery and the psychological support necessary to regain a high quality-of-life existence. Hematopoietic stem donors are giving part of themselves to save another's life. They deserve comprehensive supportive care to accompany them throughout the donation process.

Abstract
Pediatric donors may be at increased risk of psychological and social challenges following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Through a retrospective chart review, we evaluated the health-related quality of life (HRQL) of pediatric donors over time and examined facilitators and barriers to implementing a longitudinal psychosocial assessment. Fifty-one pediatric donors (M = 10.7 years, SD = 3.7) completed an HRQL questionnaire across six time points (T1 to T6) from prior to donation to 2 years after. Change in mean scores was assessed using a linear mixed-effect model for repeated measures design. Facilitators and barriers to implementation were examined. HRQL of pediatric donors improved between T1 and T6 with significant change in physical, emotional, and overall functioning. Facilitators to retention included the support of a clinical coordinator. Barriers to implementation included the absence of infrastructure to maintain contact with pediatric and their families. HRQL of pediatric donors of HCT improved steadily over time. Pattern of results suggests a need to further explore factors that contribute to change across time. Development of a longitudinal standardized assessment protocol that can be prospectively and feasibly implemented is integral to supporting the well-being of this group.

Abstract
Bone marrow harvesting is a means to obtain stem cells to treat certain hematologic conditions in related or unrelated individuals. The most cited complication after bone marrow harvesting is surgical site pain. We developed a protocol incorporating regional anesthesia to improve pain control and reduce opioid use. A retrospective chart review was performed on three pediatric patients who underwent bone marrow harvesting for a sibling recipient and were managed via a standardized regional pain protocol. Each patient was treated with bilateral quadratus lumborum blocks in the operating room, prior to incision. Anesthesia records were reviewed for opioid administration intraoperatively and postoperatively. Two of three patients underwent successful QL blocks as evidenced by pain scores of 0/10 and lack of opioid administration in the post-anesthesia care unit. One patient was found to have a failed block and exhibited pain in the immediate and post-discharge time frame. Following this outpatient procedure, all patients were discharged home to the care of their parents, and no patients required admission due to pain. By utilizing the framework of a successful regional anesthesia model adapted from our adult bone marrow donor patients, we were able to employ a minimal opioid anesthetic and reunite patients with their families efficiently. We continue to use quadratus lumborum blocks in our pediatric patients to facilitate perioperative analgesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The physical risks involved in donating hematopoietic stem cells have been thoroughly studied, but little is known about the psychological risks potential donors might face before donation. The aim of this study was to describe potential the pre-donation worries and psychological well-being of hematopoietic stem cell donors and investigate possible associations between donor characteristics and psychological well-being. METHODS In a cross-sectional, national cohort study, we describe pre-donation worries and psychological well-being and investigate possible associations between donor characteristics and psychological well-being. A questionnaire was sent to prospective adult hematopoietic stem cells donors. RESULTS The study included 210 participants, 47% of whom were related and 53% unrelated to the recipient. Of the participants, 39% reported great worry about the recipient and 12% great worry about themselves as potential donors. Symptoms of anxiety were expressed by 21%, whereas symptoms of depression were uncommon and perceived general mental health was slightly lower than in the Swedish population. Great worry about oneself, lower age, and female sex were related to increased anxiety and lower mental health. CONCLUSION This study highlighted that some potential donors report high levels of pre-donation worry and that greater worry about oneself, lower age, and female sex are associated with lower psychological well-being. Although further studies are needed to investigate this psychological risk over time, it is clear that some potential donors are particularly vulnerable.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:862309.

Abstract
Purpose Bone marrow harvesting is associated with significant postoperative pain that may have potential negative consequences for the patient and health care system. In the current absence of uniform guidelines, there exists considerable variability amongst providers with respect to perioperative analgesia, especially opioid administration. In this initiative, we explored the potential for preoperative bilateral quadratus lumborum blocks in combination with a standardized perioperative analgesic protocol to manage pain with the goal of reducing perioperative narcotic usage and thereby improving opioid stewardship. Methods Adults who underwent bone marrow donation from 2018 to 2020 were included in this analysis (n = 32). The pre-implementation group (n = 19) was reviewed retrospectively while the implementation group (n = 13) was evaluated prospectively. Patient demographics, pain scores, and opioid consumption were evaluated. Results Patient characteristics were equivalent except for anesthesia type with an increased number of patients in the implementation group undergoing spinal anesthesia. The implementation group showed significantly reduced median intraoperative (20.0 mg vs. 0.0 mg; p < 0.001) and total opioid consumption (20.5 mg vs. 0.0 mg; p < 0.001). The number of patients who received any opioids decreased from 84.2% (16/19) before implementation to 23.1% (3/13) after implementation. Conclusion This change in practice suggests that implementation of a standardized perioperative protocol, including bilateral quadratus lumborum blocks, for bone marrow harvest patients leads to reduced perioperative opioid administration without compromising immediate perioperative pain control.
